Question

useing asp.net webservice with method :

[WebMethod(EnableSession = true)]
[ScriptMethod(ResponseFormat = ResponseFormat.Json)]
public List<MyObject> GetList()
{
    ....return new List of MyObject{ x =  .., y = .. , z = ..};
}

the client using that service is with JQuery Ajax call is working good

$.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: url,
        data: data == null ? "{}" : data,
        contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
        dataType: "json",
 ..... and so on ... 

but with firebug I’ve notice that the response is :

{"d":[{"__type":"Common.MyObject","z":"2000","x":1500,"y":1000,"a":"0"},{"__type":"Common.MyObject","z":"2000","x":1455,"y":1199.57,"a":"1"}
...... and so on
]}

1) question is why do I need this “”__type”:”Common.MyObject” ?
2) I want to remove it so the response will be smaller , how can I do it ?

Answer 1

ok ,I used httpmodule and regex to change the response

regex by :
